Paid The Piper

Intro
(E Am)

Verse
E                    Am
Paid the Piper for your damned religion
E                    Am        B
Lookin' up at the stars for signs of it
E                    Am
Bet on mercenaries like twin race cars
E                    Am        B
Tell me why this corruption ain't all your fault

Pre-Chorus
F#m        B
Waiting by the yard your fine
F#m        B
Children's guns they fire by night
F#m        B
Bullets in the dark
Am
Your life it's hard

Chorus
E                  B
So you bring it up baby
F#m                 A
Just let it down again
E                  B
And say the world has screwed you
F#m                A
Because you're buying everything
E                  B
There's a price to be in heaven
F#m                A
Cuz lord it ain't for free
E                  B
You need divine intervention
F#m           A
Come sanctify me

Verse
E                     Am
Wait for him in the back he's got your dough
E                     Am            B
They've got to be taxes so let the murders grow
E                     Am
What's wrong with this boy his neck is snapped
E                     Am           B
You better run from the police cuz they've got your ass

Pre-Chorus
F#m                 B
Waiting by the yard your fine
F#m                 B
Children's guns they fire by night
F#m              B
Bullets in the dark
Am
Your life it's hard


Chorus
E             B
So you bring it up baby
F#m           A
Just let it down again
E             B
And say the world has screwed you
F#m           A
But you're buying everything
E             B
There's a price to be in heaven
F#m           A
Cuz lord it ain't for free
E            B
You need divine intervention
F#m         A
Come sanctify me

Run Jack Run, Run Jack Run…


Chorus
E                    B
So you bring it up baby
F#m              A
Just let it down again
E                 B
And say the world has screwed you
F#m                B
But you're buying everything
E                   B
There's a price to be in heaven
F#m                A
Cuz lord it ain't for free
E                B
You need divine intervention
F#m          A
Come sanctify me
